To PROTECT CANADA cablegram has
been received by the department of fisheries
at Ottawa from the colonial secretary in
London in response to an appeal to the
mother country by the Canadian authori.
ties asking that, in view of the hostile at
titude of the United States, some assistance
be granted for the coming season in the
protection of the Canadian fisheries. The
message received shows that England will
gladly ioin il the aid asked for, and assur-
ances have been received that at least half
dozen men-of.wa will be dispatched to the
maritime provinces early in the spring, and
that they will cooperate in every way pos
sible with Canadian cruisers in the enforce
ment of the fishery protective service.
These will also be ready to make naval de-
monstration On the American coast in case
of war. The contents of the cablegram is
being jealousy guarded, but it has been
learned from unquestioned authority that it
promised not only the ships, but that the
big guns promised for Vancouver, B. c.,
would be forwarded at once, and batch of
some 20, so, and 100.ton guns sent for the
better fortifcation of Montreal, Quebec
and Halifax. The result is said to mean
that hereafter, whatever policy is pursued

visions against American fishing vessels will
be more ri. lily enforce1. A cabinet minis

The Strike i'm New York.

NEW YORK, Jan. 31.-The official order
issued yesterday at the 'longshoremen' s con-
vention ordering out the members of the
several unions to the number OF $500 had
very little effect on the business at the East
river piers to day. In most cases the
order covered unions whose members were
already out so that there was little or no
change in the situation of affairs on the
New York side of the East river. At Pier
46 the union hands refused on China tea
ship which arrived there on Saturday. In
an hour all the non.union men that were
required were at work on the vessels gang
way and matches. The freight handlers on
the New York City and New England pier
at the foot of Market street, failed to come to
any terms with the management and their
places were taken by green hands. Mr..
Allen said he could get all the men he
wanted without advertising for them.

Suicide or an Accident,

NEW YORK, Jan. 31.-Word reached
police headquarters at O'Clock this morn
ing that Raymond Belmont, con of August
Belmont, the we'll known banker, had shot
and killed himself at his fathers residence.
The deceased had taken dinner ont, and
upon returning hcme went with Leonard
Behr, nigh. Waterman, down 10 the base
ment Of his fathers house where there was
shooting gallery, in which young Belmont,
who was q very expert shot, frequently
pracliced. Here he also had stock of re-
volvers and guns. AS they entered the
room young Belmont picked up double
acting Smith and Wesson pearl handled
revolver of 90 calibre, and, requested Behr
to hold up gold collar button in mis- hand
that he might shoot at it. Thereupon Behr
walked over to door and had just put his
hand upon it when he heard the report of
the pistol, and turning at once he saw
young Belmont falling TO the floor, blood
gushing from wound in the right side of
his head. The Waterman summoned DR..
Polk, the family physician, and in few
he was at the young mans bed
side with two other physicians. They tried
to rescussitate young Belmont, but failed.
He died soon after the bullet entered his
brain. The Waterman said the shooting
was accidental, but the coroner said ali the
pointed to suicide. 1t was
evident that youup Belmont had taken con.
siderable wine with his dinner.

MONDAY EVENING, JANUARY 81.

GEN. WARNER, of Ohio, congressman
from that State, in speaking of the inter
state commerce bill, says "it encroaches upon
the rights of the States I; that any State
would be justi6abe in resisting it; and
that there never was bill that SO obliter-
ated State boundaries as it does" And yet
Gen. Warner fought to abolish States rights
and to make support of States rights trea'
son and rebellion. Now that the Southern
people have had the doctrine of States
rights shot and burnt and starved out OF
them, the Northern shooters, burners ard
starvers have adopted that doctrine. 1t Is
the true doctrine uuquestionabiy, and it is
hoped the present attempt of the North to
give it national establishment may be
more successful than that the South made
from 1889 to 1861.

WHEN THE Chinese Minister witnessed
the rayenous voracity with which his sup

recent reception, and saw "eveu judges of
TIE United States Supreme Court scrabbling

Americans as Capt. Boyle, U. S. N, did OF
the people on an island in the Pacific, OF
whose manners and customs, which he had
been sent to investigate, his report, al
ter prolonged and inexplicable absence
and great expense, was contained in these
few words: "Of manners they have none,
and their customs are abominabie." he
also doubtless thought that the American
missionaries sent to China to ''civilize" the

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 81, 1887.
A late friendly interview of Congressman
Brady and Gen. Malone, of Virginia. which
took place at the Capitol here. is striking
instance of how falling out with Malone
makes failing inn of certain republicans
who, while bearing no speciat love for each
other, are yet ready to meet on the broad
ground of antagonism to common enemy.
When Mr. Brady became the devoted fol-
lower, and in great part the head manager
of Malone, his relations heretofore most
cordial with General Wickham, ceased al
most wholly to exist. They had scarcely
spoken for wears until their late meeting, at
which. it is said, the Ratchet was buried
and assurances of an earnest cooperation
for the future given. Brady seems as de-
tsrmined as ever in his opposition to Ma
hone, and it would seem, too, that he has
the energy aud pluck to carry on the fight,
and may yet prove thorn in the side OF his
great adversary.

The PERSISTENT and vain attempts OF the
State authorities to set side and override
the mandates of The U. S. Supreme Court,
the supreme law of the land, are producing
a prodigious crop of law suits. If the costs
of these suits would fall upon the States
officers or their securities the people would
not be so put out by them, but, unfortunate
", the costs fall upon the State, and the
people thereof must be taxed to pay them
There is no use in mincing words about
this matter. 1t is shame, q disgrace, and
an outrage, and, as regards it, forbeersnce
has almost ceased to be virtue. The war
between the States decided that national
is superior to State law, and it is useless and
senseless TO fight against the inevitable.
